Jimrat, are there commercial drinks with Stevia in them, or do you mean to add Stevia to them? I can't drink saccharine because it has a bitter aftertaste. But you're absolutely right that, once you get over a sugar addiction, you don't have to add much (if any) sugar to some foods that are already sweet. I remember eating Rice Krispies without adding anything to it (besides milk) when I broke my sugar addiction. However, you have to be careful not to START adding sugar and then more sugar, because you can build up a sugar addiction all over again, like I did.

And Rose, I know the news is always saying coffee's good for you, coffee's bad for you, back and forth, back and forth. But the last thing I heard is that people who drink coffee tend to live longer! I don't like coffee, except for dipping cookies in, or in tiramisu (which contains espresso).
